    i believe malaysians are sick of their gahmen.. just like some of us do of ours. even my friends in oz, nz and usa also felt that way about theirs. people usually think of the bad things but seldom remember the good. one (probably a lousy example), malaysians get subsidized fuel right...

    i have also thought of the ideal situation. we buy a semi in jb. then get either my parents to rent out their hdb (as copi $$$ for retirement), or her parents to rent out theirs, then my own hdb rent out to finance the semi. this plan would allow them to retire early, and everyone have a larger...

    agreed. use this time to save your bullets and move in for the kill when it heads south.. imo, it doesn't really matter if u don't get at the rock bottom (nobody can predict). even a 5-10% is good :)

    btw, for those of you staying there.. do you do area cleaning by yourselves? hdb is currently back-breaking already (worse if you have kids hopping around).. imagine doing it for a cluster or even a semi-d :eek: for sharing sake.. how much is it getting a part-time maid, and she can go thru...

    hello bro.. that's in SG. i believe that'll logically happen in JB too. but almost everyone (discount the agents..:p) i asked say JB won't happen and remained stable throughout history. wierd. foreigners fuel demand. in a crash, the very same foreigners will go, and wouldn't that also...
